Appraisal Conclusions: The subject machinery & equipment was generally older. Not removable or heavily installed machinery and equipment had little or no value under the removal value concept considered. This category of machinery and equipment had high In-Place value. The market for domestic flat glass in general is continuing to improve, and corresponding demand for glass manufacturing machinery and equipment is also on an upswing.

Appraisal Observations: The domestic sawmill and wood production industry has faced challenging conditions, but improvements are anticipated. A recovery in housing starts and remodeling activity will support demand for wood products. Correspondingly, demand for good quality sawmills and related machinery and equipment is also improving.

Appraisal Conclusions: The subject machinery & equipment was new. Concluded values were favorable, primarily based on condition and current market demand. The General Electric jet engines, jet engine specific tooling, and jet engine stands in particular had high value, which was supported by recent forced and negotiated sales of like kind assets.

Appraisal Conclusions: The industry’s revenue has suffered in recent years, as consumers and manufacturers have spent less on products recycled by this industry. The weak scrap aluminum markets directly affected the value of used scrap aluminum processing equipment. The industry is rebounding, and used aluminum scrap metals machinery & equipment values are similarly improving.
